Drakengard 3 Hits Europe May 21

But it will only be available as a digital only release.

Drakengard 3, the newest game in Square Enix’s long running series that acts as a prequel, set before the events of the first game, finally has a confirmed, concrete release date for Europe- in Europe and other PAL territories, it will be launching May 21.

Perhaps to cut their losses in bringing over what has to be a low selling game at best, Square Enix have also confirmed that Drakengard 3 will hit these regions as a downloadable release only, with no physical version planned.

The game, which is promised to feature the trademark hack and slash action that the series has come to be known for, follows the story of six sister goddesses who descend to earth, acting as a prequel to the original game.

Square Enix released a new trailer for the game in celebration of this news. Check it out, and stay tuned to GamingBolt for more news and coverage of the game.
